Figure 4.

Representative scanned image of one placenta per group for quantification and identification of junctional and labyrinth zones. Placental tissue at gestation day 20 (G20) from reduced uterine perfusion pressure (RUPP) and Sham-operated dams in response to vehicle or a soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulator (Riociguat 10 mg/kg/day). Placentas for morphological assessment were selected based on average whole placental surface area from randomly selected placentas that were near the average placental weight and median location on the uterine horn at harvest.
